Colorful Small Modern Farmhouse Powder Room

A peek at those awesome Teal cabinets I painted a couple of months ago in our Laundry Room. This powder room sits right next to them. So, I was looking for a wallpaper with some pops of teal too. You can see here that I carried the v-groove panel wainscoting into both rooms. I love v-groove in our traditional home that has a lot of wainscoting, where beadboard would feel a bit too country here. You can read more about how I installed the paneling in step 3 of this powder room post. That Teak Vase from Target is my current favorite home decor. I want one in every room!

Our powder room when we moved in, May 2012

How welcoming and fun is this room now?! It just makes me happy every time I’m in there. That vessel sink adds tons of character and saves storage space in that dresser I cut in half to make this vanity. I have steps for how to cut and modify drawers for plumbing too.

I tend to have the best luck with cute towels and rugs from Target. Their Threshold line tends to be the one I always end up buying. But the Magnolia Home Line is a close second. Those pretty faux bone drawer pulls are from World Market. If you don’t have one of those nearby, Amazon has a bunch of great bone/white drawer pulls. And, if your tile grout is dingy and ugly, here’s my DIY to Fix Ugly Grout. It’s a game changer, guys. 🙂

That mirror has been a real challenge for me in the last 6 years. I’ve painted it 4 times but I never really liked it until I did this Rust Patina makeover. This is a simple update for old decor. Just brush on the special paint, then spray with the patina. so easy for an update that turns out so beautiful! You can find the Rust Patina DIY steps here.

That DIY V-Groove Paneling and Anthropologie Sychronized Wallpaper are a match made in heaven, right. I just love them together. I use Behr’s Polished Pearl on all of the wainscoting and trim in our home. You can see it on my DIY Board and Batten feature wall in the kid’s room too. You can find a great wallpaper tutorial on the Love and Renovations website. She picked a really fun Anthropologie wallpaper for her breakfast nook.

I try to add Crown Molding to any room I’m working on. I love the look of traditional moldings. Crown just adds a finished and polished look to any room. You can see an example of Chunky Crown Molding in our Boy’s Bedroom too.

Another view of that beautiful wallpaper. We are lucky to have these extra storage cabinets hanging in each bathroom. You can never have enough storage, right. We’re also lucky to have 10-foot high ceilings on the first floor.

I added this simple and sweet DIY shelf to add a bit more color and character. Plus, it sort of breaks up all of that white wainscoting in a nice way. My son painted those little bird houses for me when he was 2. I just had to find a way to display them. 🙂

The faucets are Moen Brantford faucets. They have a nice traditional style that works with this colorful modern farmhouse powder room.

A little view from above. That counter is Silestone Lusso Quartz leftover from our big Kitchen Remodel. We used it in our Laundry Room Makeover too. So, what do you think? Did you find anything you can use in your home? I hope this makeover inspired or helped in some way. Don’t forget to Pin your favorite images to Pinterest for later. 🙂
